Summary

Students admitted to certain children's residential facilities. Requires each student admitted under a physician's order, due to medical necessity and not solely for school purposes, to a children's residential facility licensed by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services to immediately be enrolled in an education program that is comparable to that which is provided in the child's school division of residence. The bill requires the school division of residence to (i) transfer on a monthly basis to each children's residential facility funds necessary to cover the expenses of providing a comparable education program for each student, (ii) help facilitate the discharge of each such student, and (iii) upon discharge, facilitate the reenrollment of each student in the appropriate school in the school division.
